/net/useruv        (/dev/dsk/c1t5d0s1 ): 2717914 blocks   400247 files

On arsd it is a locally mounted drive, but on all other machines it is nfs
mounted.  About half the mounts in /net (on the host arsd, not on the
other hosts) are local.  Again, for ease of users, not ease of management.
Again, not my choice.

See, we have 2 file servers, arsd and arsd2.  Half the file systems are on
arsd, the other on arsd2, and those filesystems are mounted to all the
other machines.  This same type of thing is working on arsd2, just not on
arsd.  I'm not sure why.  I think I'm just going to do is just recreate
everything on arsd and start over.  Maybe I missed something.

Thanks for your help.
